Federation (WTKF) based in Geneva, Switzerland. After having retired from decades of national competition, he now participates as a Certified Coach and Class A (International) Competition Judge. Tong is current President of the American Amateur Karate Federation (AAKF), the oldest non-governmental organization for karate competition in the United States. He founded the Japan Traditional Karate Association of Dallas as a young, third-degree black belt from the Pacific Northwest. JTKA Dallas celebrated its fortieth anniversary in 2022. As a direct student of the late Hidetaka Nishiyama, his interpretations of traditional karate-do practice are backed by a lineage that traces back to the great Gichin Funakoshi, Founder of Shotokan karate-do and known as the “father of modern karate.” Alex Tong, PhD is also a professional cancer research scientist for over 40 years. He has authored over 70 full-length original research articles and book chapters, which rank among the top 5% according to the Research Gate (RG) score, a cumulative measure of research outcomes, reputation among peers, and citation statistics. Tong holds multiple patents on experimental treatment of human cancers and served as adjunct professor at Baylor University, Waco, and the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX.
